Carpentries Workshop at TCDL 2021
2021-06-01 - 2021-06-04 | online
This event is hosted by TDL and Texas A&M University Libraries. Library Carpentry is a hands-on workshop for learning core software and data skills of relevance to those in library roles with the goal to empower people to use software and data in their own work and to become advocates for efficient, effective, and reproducible data and software practices. While the workshop is domain-agnostic, datasets used will be familiar to library staff. In this multi-day, post-conference workshop, instructors will guide attendees through three lessons: Tidy Data for basic spreadsheet formatting and quality assurance as well as OpenRefine and R to transform, clean, and analyze data. Participants do not need any previous knowledge of the tools that will be presented at the workshop. Participants must have access to a computer with a Mac, Linux, or Windows operating system (not a tablet, Chromebook, etc.) for which they have administrative privileges in order to install and use the necessary software packages.
